Dear all,

 

The DAISY Consortium are delighted to announce the first beta release of their new open source software tool – Ace – an accessibility conformance checking tool for EPUB 3 publications.

Based on the requirements specified in the new EPUB Accessibility Conformance and Discovery Specification 1.0, Ace has been designed to check packaged or unpackaged EPUB 3 files at any point in the publishing workflow process.

 

This beta release is actively seeking feedback from technical experts in the publishing industry who are happy engaging with EPUB 3 code and working through a command line interface. We would be grateful if you could share this within your technical community and encourage feedback.

Looking forward to your feedback and comments.

 

With regards

Avneesh Singh

COO, DAISY Consortium
